Forces, Dynamics & Rheology

The Squires group has developed various techniques to probe the response of complex interfaces. Examples include the rheological response of surfactant-laden interfaces, with particular focus on disorders of the lung surfactant, the transient rheology of oil/water interfaces as surface-active species adsorb, multi-component and multiphase effects within surfactant monolayers, the dynamics of interfacial polymerization and other reacting interfaces.
